Endnote X6 and X7 create new or open existing library error

You cannot just move the .enl file.  That doesn’t contain the essential files which are all in the associated .DATA folder in the same location as the .enl folder lives.  This will definately BREAK the library.  – either compress the library (file>compress) to a .enlx file and move that and open it in the new location, or take the .enl file AND the .DATA folder and put them both in the same location - (do not put the .enl file IN the .DATA folder).
